How did your car handle with this suspension setup. Comfy or bumpy ride? Much of a drop over stock ride height?

felt good, some of the roads near where i live are pritty rough and it handle nice and firm on the road (not hard like coilovers, and it wasnt like steering a sail boat). i dont know about the stock ride high i think that there was aboot 3 or 4cm's from the gaurd to the wheel?

hope that helped :P

For those interested, I have KYB shocks on the rear on mine, they do a great job, still nice and firm, but give way for those nasty bumps (I live around shitty roads, I know all about bumps and pot holes).

The real squats nicely when giving it a bit and compensates enough to prevent wheelspin, but doesn't feel like a total boat on the corners. It's like a new skyline straight off the factory floor as the original setup was from KYB.

Hope this gives you an idea of how they fair, mine has been on for ~6,000km now and don't miss a beat. Also, mine is standard height.

Cheers,

Ben

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
